00:00 Assalamu alaikum. Hello and welcome to Sports Room.

00:02 I am your host, Najeeb ul-Hasnain.

00:04 Viewers, as you know, PSL Season 9 is upon us.

00:07 And today, the draft of PSL Season 9 is going on as we speak.

00:12 And in this, the pick of the Platinum category has been completed by all the teams.

00:17 We will talk about this.

00:18 In the studio, I have with me our sports correspondent, Shahid Hashmi sahib.

00:21 And Shoaib Jatt has also joined us.

00:23 Assalamu alaikum. Welcome to the show.

00:25 We always say in Pakistan that PSL is not just a league, a franchise cricket set up.

00:33 It's like a festival.

00:34 So when it comes, the excitement increases a lot.

00:37 And right now, all the excitement is about who makes which team, what balance is made.

00:42 So the picks so far, Shahid sahib, I will start with you.

00:45 The first pick in the Platinum category was of Multan Sultan.

00:50 And they went for David Willey.

00:52 How do you see David Willey's pick?

00:53 He had it before. Now he has retired from international cricket.

00:56 So he will have more time.

00:58 And he is a very good left-arm fast bowler.

01:00 He can bat well on top of the numbers.

01:03 And he is a very good player of T20. So it's a good pick.

01:05 And he had confidence in him from the beginning.

01:08 Yes. And the next pick is of Karachi King.

01:10 Karachi King has picked Karen Pollard.

01:12 Obviously, he has been with us before.

01:14 Overall, he is very experienced.

01:16 He has played leagues all over the world.

01:18 And I feel that after coming to Phil Simmons' coaching setup,

01:23 he must be feeling comfortable with the West Indian player as a power hitter in the side.

01:29 If we talk about Pollard, he has 637 T20 matches experience.

01:34 And he has more than 300 wickets.

01:36 So you can understand that he is very useful.

01:38 And like you said, he is a power hitter.

01:40 And he knows how to change the game at any time.

01:42 He has made his top impact in all the top leagues in the world.

01:45 I feel that Karachi King will benefit a lot from this.

01:49 If you look at Karachi King overall,

01:51 you can see that he has a very good all-rounder.

01:54 You can see the captain there.

01:56 He has made a very good decision to bring in Shaan Masood.

01:59 He has made an impact in the English season.

02:02 He has improvised the most in cricket.

02:05 Absolutely right. These two things,

02:07 Karen Pollard's pick and Shaan Masood's announcement a few hours ago.

02:11 Everyone already had an idea that Shaan will become the captain of Karachi King.

02:15 But him leading a side in PSL in Karachi, how do you see this?

02:20 Shaan is a very good player and he is very motivated.

02:23 The way he played for Multan Sultan.

02:26 Multan Sultan also had a good captaincy.

02:28 So Shaan Masood is very good.

02:30 But I have reservations on Karen Pollard.

02:32 Because he is a player who has played his cricket.

02:35 In the Caribbean Premier League, he didn't even have 50 in 10 matches.

02:39 In T20, he had single digit scores.

02:42 If Phil Simmons is bringing in this coaching of Karen Pollard,

02:47 then I pray that he becomes a very bad player.

02:51 I pray that he gets some magic in him, some shine in him.

02:53 And he starts hitting in Karachi Kings.

02:55 But all the players who go from Karachi Kings,

02:58 they go to other teams and I don't know why,

03:01 they get angry and perform there.

03:03 But Karen Pollard is obviously a game changer.

03:06 You are right that his peak has come out.

03:09 Mumbai Indians also took him out and brought him in support staff.

03:13 It is a surprising pick, but obviously he has a brain.

03:16 Haider Azhar, Imran, everyone has knowledge.

03:20 So he must have thought about it and Phil Simmons's recommendation will be more.

03:25 Along with that, we will also tell you about the current updates.

03:30 Diamond category has started in which Multan Sultan has picked David Milan.

03:35 Moving on to the Platinium,

03:38 because all the excitement was more for the Platinium category.

03:41 Shahid sir, I would like to know,

03:43 Quetta Gladiator picked Sheffien Rutherford in their first Platinium pick.

03:47 Obviously, he used to play for Peshawar Zalmi.

03:50 He is a game changer.

03:52 He has played with Karachi Kings too.

03:53 When we won, he had a big contribution.

03:57 He has played with Peshawar Zalmi too.

03:59 He is a good cricketer.

04:00 He has joined the West Indies team again.

04:02 He is a good pick.

04:05 Amir and Naseem Shah went to him.

04:08 He was a big player in Islamabad United.

04:12 We were talking about Sheffien Rutherford.

04:16 He has picked Noor Ahmed.

04:19 He has strengthened his spin department.

04:22 You have to admit that Noor Ahmed is a T20 sensation.

04:26 The way PSL pitches are made.

04:29 Remember, it is the World Cup season.

04:32 We are getting news that you will get to see 200 matches in PSL.

04:37 Usually, you don't get to see them.

04:39 But, now we are getting to hear them.

04:40 Noor Ahmed is a smart pick.

04:42 Babar Azam has played with him in different places.

04:45 I think he will benefit from it.

04:47 Shahid sir, you mentioned Mohd. Amir.

04:50 Quetta Gladiator's next pick is Mohd. Amir.

04:53 Mohd. Amir has played for Karachi Kings in all the PSL matches.

04:58 This is his first change.

05:00 Was it important for Quetta to change their arsenal?

05:05 They have not even come in the playoffs in the last 4 PSLs.

05:09 They have changed their head coach.

05:11 Shane Watson, who has no coaching experience,

05:14 has been understudied in the Delhi Capitals IPL.

05:18 But, he has no coaching experience.

05:20 He has taken a big risk with Shane Watson.

05:24 You cannot blame a coach for not playing well in the playoffs.

05:30 There is no question of coaching.

05:32 If his team is not playing well, it is the coach's fault.

05:36 50% is the coach's fault. 50% is the team's fault.

05:40 But, they have brought Shane Watson.

05:42 Good luck to them.

05:43 We will come back to the diamond pick.

05:47 Peshawar Zalvi has picked Asif Ali in his diamond pick.

05:51 Asif Ali is a devastating hitter.

05:55 Let's see how successful he is this time.

05:58 Now, it is Islamabad's turn.

06:00 Let's talk about Lahore and Kalandar's two picks.

06:04 They have picked Fakhar Zaman.

06:06 He had a right to match card.

06:08 No one has touched Fakhar Zaman.

06:10 How do you see the picks of Ressie Van Der Doosan,

06:13 a great South African player?

06:16 Both are informed batsmen.

06:18 Although the T20 World Cup was of 50 overs,

06:21 both showed their impact in white ball cricket.

06:23 They also show their impact in T20.

06:26 I think it is a smart choice.

06:30 All the teams are doing it well.

06:33 Their squads are winning squads.

06:36 That is why everyone comes to the market.

06:39 But, the picks are also about luck.

06:42 You have to understand which turn is your pick.

06:45 You have to keep an eye on the ball.

06:48 You have to keep an eye on the ball.

06:51 Both are big names.

06:53 Islamabad United has picked Tymal Mills.

06:56 He has played for Karachi and Quetta.

07:00 Let's talk about the Platinum category.

07:04 Islamabad United has picked Jordan Cox.

07:07 He has picked him in his last platinum pick.

07:09 He is the wicketkeeper batter.

07:11 He is a keeper batsman.

07:12 He has performed well in T20 Blast.

07:14 He scored a 100 in Abu Dhabi T10.

07:18 He has played in 35-36 balls.

07:20 Cox is a good player.

07:22 He has played in the Big Badge.

07:24 We have to see how he performs in subcontinental conditions.

07:28 Joe Clark was performing well when he played for PSL.

07:32 Many English players, especially batsmen,

07:34 struggle to spin in subcontinental conditions.

07:39 But, Jordan Cox is a good spinner.

07:41 He is a good player and a backup wicketkeeper.

07:43 He has played for Karachi and Quetta.

07:45 Both Karachi Kings' last picks were in the Platinum category.

07:49 They have picked Daniel Sams from All Rounder Australia.

07:53 He can bowl well.

07:55 His strike rate was very good.

07:57 He can hit well in the end.

07:59 Mohammed Nawaz is also a good player.

08:01 For those who don't know,

08:03 one of your three platinum picks

08:05 must be a local player.

08:08 Let's see how Mohammed Nawaz and Daniel Sams perform.

08:11 Sam is a fast bowling all-rounder.

08:13 His strike rate is 150-plus.

08:15 He can bowl well and hit wickets.

08:17 It's a smart move.

08:19 Okay.

08:20 The time is now for the Islamabad United match.

08:25 The Karachi Diamond pick is also coming up.

08:28 We will take you to the live show.

08:31 You will get to know which player is picked

08:34 in the Karachi Diamond pick.

08:36 We have gone for Tim Seyfried.

08:40 Karachi! Karachi!

08:42 Karachi! Karachi!

08:44 Karachi! Karachi!

08:46 Karachi! Karachi!

08:48 Over 180 T20s have been played by Tim Seyfried.

08:52 He again specialises in this format.

08:56 He has got that all-round ability.

08:59 He can bowl well and hit wickets.

09:02 A valuable addition to Karachi Kings.

09:06 The next pick is Lahore Colanders.

09:10 Your time starts now.

09:12 What can you say about this?

09:14 There are some New Zealand players

09:16 who have expertise in this format.

09:19 I can tell you that

09:21 if you look at the Karachi Kings combination,

09:25 you can see a balanced squad.

09:27 You can see match changers and hard-hitter batters.

09:31 Nawaz was given the tag of match winner.

09:35 He knows how to turn the match.

09:39 Sam's is a fast-bowling all-rounder.

09:43 Hassan Ali is a useful all-rounder.

09:46 Shoaib Malik has no experience.

09:49 Two experienced players.

09:51 Before we take a break,

09:53 let's quickly go over the picks.

09:56 Multan Sultan has picked David Milan.

09:59 Peshawar Zalmi has picked Asif Ali.

10:02 Islamabad United has picked Tymal Mills.

10:05 Karachi Kings has picked Tim Seifert.

10:08 We'll be right back.
